The best place to start is the Admin Guide which can be found in the BE installation directory.

Yes. You can duplicate the dedup-ed backup sets to tape and do GRT from the tape backup sets.  Note that the dedup-ed backup sets would be rehydrate before they are written to tape.  Also, when you do GRT restores from tape, the tape backup sets would be staged onto disk before the actual restore begins.

Yes.  You can only create vaults on disks, not tape.
